To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, E. K.

United States Letters Patent, No. 7 8,084, were granted to me, May 19, 1868, on a support for a lampshade from the top of the chimney, and adjustable thereon.

My present invention relates to the forming of a lamp-shade, of tin or other suitable material, so that the ends of the shade shall bend around and stand in such a position as to reflect the light down and under the shade in front, and not pass around the chimney to obstruct the light on the opposite side, and supported and adjustable, as in the other patents referred to.
